In gaming terms, acid is that stuff that burns through things. Probably does damage over time until you get it neutralized or cleaned off.

Game and Story Use
- Acids of varying strengths and properties can be used as poison, to burn open a lock, dispose of evidence (see also disposal of human corpses, used in a mad scientist experiment or in the pursuit of alchemy, or a variety of other adventure-specific purposes.
